Interview with Timothy Sandefur

Timothy Sandefur gave a talk at Rockford College on September 16 on “Market Entrepreneurs and Political Entrepreneurs: Some Legal and Constitutional Issues.” Mr. Sandefur is Senior Staff Attorney at the Pacific Legal Foundation in California. His talk was sponsored by the Center for Ethics and Entrepreneurship.

In the following two-part interview after his talk, I speak with Mr. Sandefur about the contrasting views of the Founding Fathers and the Progressives on liberty, democracy, and human rights, how the Progressive agenda has led to an increase in political entrepreneurship, and philosophy’s role in reforming in our politicized economic system.
